Prasidh to Atkinson, out Caught by Akash Deep!! Mis-hit and taken at mid-on. Prasidh has his fourth. They tried to get the ball to move off the pitch by bowling on the fuller side but Atkinson played some brilliant shots. Prasidh tries to dig it into the pitch now and forces the mis-hit. Wasn't quite a tall bouncer but a short ball. Atkinson was definitely surprised by the change in length, which is why he couldn't middle the pull shot. The moment the ball went in the air, the fielder at short mid-wicket was so convinced and relaxed knowing this is going straight to his teammate. The ball got big on the batter and hit him high on the bat. Akash actually had to lunge forward a bit and take it low. Atkinson c Akash Deep b Prasidh 11(16) [4s-2]

Siraj to Atkinson, no run, dropped! Siraj didn't react well in the followthrough to grab this return catch. He flings in pain immediately. Looks like it's hit him badly on the palm.
